    We were honored to having known Shane. So glad I spent time getting to know and learn from him the 2 years at the airport. He had a gift for doing “the right thing”, and he and I really upped the Safety Program together! Shane had a gusto for life. He will be missed by all.

    Our thoughts are with Shane’s family at this time. Share was a student and friend of mine when we were both at Tri-Valley School in Alaska. Shane was a friendly, conscientious student and a great person. I remember he would frequently come into my classroom to visit before school began and we had some good conversations and laughs. At that time his dream was to go in to the culinary field and he did. Knowing Shane’s, personality, sense of humor, work-ethic, and compassion I have no doubt he was an excellent Husband and Father. He will be remembered fondly and his legacy will live on in his descendants. May God bless Julia Ann, Victoria, Symon, Tayvis, Candance, his parents and siblings and Peace and comfort be with all.
